I may expand to the Murrieta or Temecula area later but for now I'll keep my searching to these cities as the prices are somewhat more affordable.  

Here are the numbers:* Deal #1 (mid 2017) purchased 3 family house aka “tri-plex” in a fairly desirable part of the city on a FHA loan.

It is confirmed Amazon chose Long Island City and Crystal City as number one and two for new headquarters.

My biggest mistake was failing to account of deferred maintenance in my "down payment".

@John Bastidas I’ve dealt with these, but typically the county/city won’t reduce the fines (to usually less than 10%) until After the violations are corrected....which makes it somewhat of a gamble for the buyer.IF they can get the fines reduced and paid off, and the lien removed, prior to your closing....no problem.
